Does anyone know the average statistics of the left hand to the right hand in orthodox boxers? I'd say for every right hand punch thrown ie straight right right hook right uppercut (whether landed or not) there would be an average of three left handed shots ie jab or hook, ie the left hand is used far more than the right side in most fights, does anyone have any decent stats at hand?

Basically I'm trying to instill the importance of the left over the right in a boxer.

Both left and right hand are extremely important...though you practice more with your left because you throw it more.. Your mouth gets a lot more attention than your anus because you use it to talk, eat, sing, kiss, and whistle for cabs.. Your anus is just as essential, even though it's repertory is limited.

You work extremely hard to master the jab and the left hook.. and the stance, balance, footwork, and timing to make them effective... But you still need the right lead, right counter, right uppercut, and right hook... You're only as good as the weakest part of your game -- because that part can kill you.
